The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

"Boss, you were simply... simply explosively handsome." Zhou Boxiong couldn't hold back any longer, shouting loudly towards Tang Rao while clenching his fists to his chest, looking utterly infatuated.

Hearing Zhou Boxiong's words, Tang Rao also felt damn good inside.

Give me a break, your old man Lao Hei showcased divine might. If that wasn't handsome, then the world would have no justice left, alright.

I'm not just bragging, but after this, I'm probably going to capture a whole bunch of girls' hearts.

To tell you the truth, I don't even know what to do with myself; I'm feeling a bit inflated.

"Just average, average. It's just that I'm a person with too strong a sense of responsibility and an exploding sense of justice. Seeing those Heavenly Demons from different domains, my sacred justice simply couldn't be controlled, so I just overperformed a little bit. Of course, this sort of achievement is just minor, hardly worth mentioning, not worth mentioning at all," Tang Rao said while waving his hands.

It sounded modest, but his words were actually dripping with self-praise.

"I'm impressed by this round too, decisive and thrilling," Yan Wei also extended a thumbs-up towards Tang Rao.

It's unavoidable to say, Tang Rao's combat power and explosiveness were seriously terrifying.

Without absolute fighting strength to suppress this guy, the fierceness Tang Rao could unleash was simply beyond imagination.

Normally, a peak Transcendance Tribulation Stage could at best tie with another of its kind. Of course, if someone's fighting power was higher, taking on two or three would be considered badass. Tang Rao was a complete anomaly; his peak Transcendance Tribulation Stage could easily handle a dozen of the same.

Just now, among those millions of Heavenly Demons from other domains, there were definitely a handful at the peak of the Transcendance Tribulation Stage.

But in the end? Those at the peak of the Transcendance Tribulation Stage were no different from common trash, completely insignificant, either fleeing or dying under Tang Rao's extreme output.

"You all shouldn't keep praising me, I might get arrogant," Tang Rao said with a grin, having not experienced such a comfortable battle in a long time, utterly satisfying and exhilarating.

Saying that, Tang Rao looked over at Fang Jinxiu, raising his eyebrows.

"Jinxiu, why aren't you saying anything?" Tang Rao asked.

"You said to not praise you anymore, so I'm not saying anything," Fang Jinxiu shook her head, her cheeks blushing slightly. Truthfully, when Tang Rao was fighting with the Heavenly Demon, her heart was beating so fast.

It wasn't that she was worried about Tang Rao, but his fighting spirit and wildness during the battle had her utterly mesmerized.

A real flush and racing heart, her little heart going thump, thump, thump, as if it was about to jump out of her throat.

"This, well, if you really feel like praising me, I don't mind. Of course, if you are deeply in love with me, we can even share a room tonight. I'm quite open-minded," Tang Rao flirted openly.

Fang Jinxiu narrowed her eyes, just as she was beginning to have a slight fondness for him, Tang Rao had reverted to his old self.

"Be bold and come now, otherwise forget it," Fang Jinxiu said.

"Now? Here?"

"Yes, I like excitement," Fang Jinxiu replied with a smile.

Tang Rao: "..."

Of course, Tang Rao did not do that something-something with Fang Jinxiu right there. Joking aside, as if he would do it in front of Zhou Boxiong and Yan Wei? That would be more than just excitement...

"Alright, everyone go do what you need to do. Fat Bear, go study your business strategies; Jinxiu, go create more Thunder, I still feel we're a bit short." Tang Rao began to dismiss them.

Fang Jinxiu and Zhou Boxiong didn't say much else, exchanging a few words before leaving.

In the control room, only Tang Rao and Yan Wei remained.

"Speak." Yan Wei nodded, Tang Rao dismissed Zhou Boxiong and Fang Jinxiu, clearly wanting to speak to him alone.

"I always feel there's something strange about this," Tang Rao said, patting the table with slightly furrowed brows. Why would the outsiders from the Heavenly Demon domain suddenly attack? There was no warning at all.

Moreover, these outsiders from the Heavenly Demon domain, except for a few at the Transcendance Tribulation peak, the rest were just cannon fodder. There were hardly any at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage, and most were at the level of Soul Splitting or Fusion; very few were in the Mahayana Realm.

This is absolutely illogical.

"Do you suspect someone is inciting them?" Yan Wei asked.

"It's not about incitement; I suspect that someone is controlling these outsiders from the Heavenly Demon domain," Tang Rao said with narrowed eyes. Controlling the outsiders from the Heavenly Demon domain isn't difficult; they are living beings, like humans, with blood, flesh, and thoughts.

They fear death and feel pain; as long as you hold their lifeline, of course, you can control and use them.

"It shouldn't be Cui Baiyi," Yan Wei pondered, "This incident was too sudden, and there's no coherent string of events to support it. Cui Baiyi has always held himself in high regard; he definitely wouldn't do such a confusing and abrupt act."

"Indeed," Tang Rao nodded. He agreed with Yan Wei's point of view.

"Neither Mei Fanghua nor Xue Xing could be it; they're both under my surveillance, so it's not them," Yan Wei continued to rule out possibilities.

"What about Dong Xia?" Tang Rao asked.

"It's unlikely to be her either, it makes no sense. So far, although we do not know her ultimate purpose, she hasn't done anything detrimental to you. Creating such nonsensical trouble is completely unnecessary," analyzed Yan Wei.

Tang Rao took a deep breath. Those who could be suspected, those who could have such strength, seemed unlikely, then who could it be? Could it really just be an offensive from the outsiders of the Heavenly Demon domain? A probing attack?

Anyway, Tang Rao didn't think so.

"Do you remember that phrase spoken by the one in charge, who had the head of an eagle?" Yan Wei suddenly said.

"Are you talking about the Giant Eagle Demon?"

"Right, I remember he said, 'You have changed beyond recognition. Currently, you, are but a novice in the Transcendance Tribulation,'" squinted Yan Wei.

Tang Rao was also taken aback, then frowned.

"The Giant Eagle Demon saying this at least indicates one thing: the person behind this thinks you are just at the beginning of the Transcendance Tribulation," said Yan Wei, "Clearly, neither Cui Baiyi nor Mei Fanghua would think of you as just being at the initial stage of Transcendance Tribulation."

Yan Wei finished and fell silent, both of them not speaking, pondering on their own.

After about ten minutes, Tang Rao raised his head, and Yan Wei also looked at Tang Rao intently.

"Giant Merchant Star!" The next moment, they exclaimed in unison.

After speaking, Tang Rao and Yan Wei fell into silence again.

If both of their suspicions converged on the same target, then there was an eighty percent chance that the Giant Merchant Star was behind these machinations.

"The interests involved are just too great," Tang Rao exhaled heavily after a long time.

"Human desires are truly a bottomless pit," Yan Wei nodded in agreement.

The Illusion City project had always been in collaboration with the Giant Merchant Star, from which the Giant Merchant Star gained a share of the profits.

But a larger portion of benefits was taken by Tang Rao.

Watching Tang Rao make huge profits, the Giant Merchant Star had become restless. At the rate that Illusion City was earning money, sooner or later, Tang Rao would develop a commercial armada that could outshine even the Giant Merchant Star.

By then, the status of the Giant Merchant Star would be challenged.
